I think it will be hard for Italy to get a third team into Champions League. Azeri, Turkish, and Polish teams as well as Zurich, which won't qualify directly, will all want the 2 wild cards. Maybe Spain or Serbia will give up one, but it will be a pity to not see more Italian teams. Who will third Russian team be? Uralochka?

Winner of today's semifinal matches will play directly in CL next season and the losers will do their best to keep one WC.Especially Galatasaray club wanna play in CL much.

If one of losers can take the WC for CL the last one will play in CEV Cup with Iller Bankası.

Starnight,

Turkish Cup winner does not get a place in Europe?

yes they do.
they clinch a berth in CEV cup. For them to go to CL they need to play the final of league competition. And if they do their spot in Cev cup is given to the club finishing the league at 4th position.

Normally Turkish Cup winner will play in CEV Cup but considering Turkish Cup F4 participants (FBU,GSMP,ECZV,VBTT) have already guaranteed to play in european cups (CL or CEV Cup) ranked in regular season as 1st-4th the result in Turkish Cup won't change anything

TED will play at Challenge Cup, not CEV Cup! In the case of without WC, Galatasaray and Vakıfbank will play at CEV Cup (I assume they will more likely lose their semifinal match)

If Vakıf and Galatasaray would play in CEV Cup, we would see some good matches since Urbino, Piacenza and Omichka will also play in this cup

I'm sure one of them will definitely get wild card. So we will have 3 teams in champions league. Last year Galatasaray was 4th and İller was 5th and they both participated in CEV so I think it will be same this year. It's CEV's decision.
